I use it for 12 months.

This is one of player / portable digital recorder market that has the best sound quality.
Indeed, it can play wav 48kHz 1400 Kbps and 320 Kbps MP3 and 48kHz.

Since 2004 he was dethroned by the iRiver ihp-140 which recognizes more formats (MP3, WMA, ASF & Ogg Vorbis) files and can play at a higher Bit Rates (8Kbps-500Kbps).

Recording side jukebox 3 remains very interesting! Indeed, it can record in WAV 48Khz, 1400 Kbps and 320Kbps MP3, 44kHz. Is a quality superior to CD and minidisk well above!

On this point, it is matched by IRiver ihp-140, which can encode MP3 at 320 Kbps, but apparently not to wav.

Side signal to noise ratio, it is 98db is the best on the market (to date), it is quality HiFi! With good audio cables, he can give his widely as good as CD upscale salon.

The hard drive (same as for Notebooks, so cheap) can be changed! Mine has a 60GB hard drive! The original disk is a 20GB Fujitsu MHT2020AT. It can be replaced by 40, 60 or 80 GB Fujitsu, Toshiba some work also.

The iriver, it uses a micro-hard drive, so it is more compact but more expensive ...

It is easy to use. For enregistrememnt, you can connect microphones, line in analog or optical digital.

Login to transfer via USB 1.0 or FireWire.

High-performance battery: 11 hours per battery. (You can put 2).

The transfer of MP3's is using a creative play center software, which allows égalementde rip audio CDs and connect to cddb.

It can serve as external hard Dique. It appears as a drive in the workstation, but does not work as a real hard drive. It must transfer the file on the PC in a temporary file before tournament to read or edit ... For larger files: Divx ... Archives ... it's not terrible ... Hopefully that improves the Creative software "file manager" to compensate for this defect.

The darker side iriver him behave like an external drive and just put all the files you want. He then recognizes MP3, so he can read. He seems able to read text files. On this side, it beats the creative jukbox.

It has 16MB of DRAM, which can continue playing or recording stops when the hard drive (when shaken ,...). It can store about 15 minutes of music in memory.

She can add an FM radio, which connects via a cord. The FM recording is possible. The iriver has the same type of FM receiver (supplied as standard, which is not true of the jukebox) but does not permit registration.

Contrary to what is stated in a previous message, it is possible to transfer files to PC jukebox.
